1 Chemistry (CHE) Majors and Minor in Chemistry Department of Chemistry, College of Arts and Sciences Chairperson: Nicole Sampson Assistant to the Chair: Norma Reyes Director of Undergraduate Studies: Dale Drueckhammer Student Affairs Coordinator: Katherine M. Hughes Office: 104 Chemistry Phone: (631) Web Address: Minors of particular interest to students majoring in Chemistry: Biology (BIO), Environmental Studies (ENS), Marine Sciences (MAR), Science and Engineering (LSE) Department Information - Chemistry (CHE) The Bachelor of Science program in Chemistry is designed to prepare the student for graduate study in chemistry or for industrial or other employment. It includes options in biological chemistry, chemical physics, and environmental chemistry, in addition to the traditional chemical science option. The B.S. program of the Department of Chemistry is approved by the Committee on Professional Training of the American Chemical Society. The Bachelor of Arts program allows more flexibility in the choice of electives, accommodating the needs of pre-medical students and others whose career objectives may call for a substantial introduction to chemistry. It can also accommodate students who wish to obtain a strong undergraduate background in another science or mathematics while earning a degree in chemistry. Students interested in combining the study of chemistry with the study of materials science should see also the Interdisciplinary Program in Engineering Chemistry. Requirements for the Majors and Minor in Chemistry (CHE) Requirements for the Major (Bachelor of Science Degree) All of the courses used to fulfill the requirements of the major (CHE, MAT, PHY, BIO, etc.) must be passed with a letter grade of C or higher, with the exception of three courses, for which the grade may be C-.

8 CHEMISTRY (CHE) - COURSES Fall 2016 CHE Chemistry CHE 115: Chemistry, Life, and Environment This survey course introduces chemical principles by emphasizing the role chemistry plays in everyday life, the natural environment, the built environment, energy production, and in processes leading to environmental degradation. In addition, the role of chemistry in the development of alternative energy sources, remediation technologies, and ecofriendly products is discussed. This course for non-science majors introduces chemical principles using mostly qualitative approaches rather than quantitative approaches. Interactive tools and interactive visualization tools are extensively used to illustrate concepts, reactions, and processes. This course is offered as both CHE 115 and ENV 115. DEC: E SNW CHE 125: Learning Strategies Essential for Success in Chemistry Focuses on developing techniques, strategies, and advanced learning skills that are essential for success in college-level chemistry. Real world contexts, issues, and problems are explored from a chemistry perspective. Provides a bridge from high school to college courses and from CHE 131 to CHE 132. A grade of C or higher in CHE 125 satisfies the prerequisite for entry into CHE 132, provided CHE 129 or CHE 131 have been completed with a passing grade (D or higher)., ABC/U grading CHE 129: General Chemistry IA This is the initial course of the four-semester General-Chemistry/Organic-Chemistry sequence CHE 129/132/321/322. This sequence provides the necessary foundation for students who wish to pursue further coursework in chemistry. The General Chemistry Courses provide a broad introduction to the fundamental principles of chemistry, including substantial illustrative material drawn from the chemistry of inorganic, organic, and biochemical systems. The emphasis is on basic concepts, problemsolving, and factual material. Students will be placed into CHE 129 based on their performance in the Online Chemistry Placement and Preparation (OCPP) process. Specifically, CHE 129 is for students with chemistry knowledge above the required OCPP minimum but who do not meet the math corequisite of CHE 131. The level and content of CHE 129 match that of CHE 131, but since the corequisite differs, students must also attend a CHE 130 session each week. CHE 130 builds essential skills in information processing, critical and analytical thinking, quantitative reasoning, and problem solving. The CHE 129 four-semester sequence is inappropriate for students who satisfy the corequisites of CHE 131. It is also inappropriate for students who have completed an AP course in chemistry and received a score of 4 or 5; such students must enroll in CHE 152. Three lecture hours, one 80-minute workshop, and one CHE 130 session per week. CHE 129 may not be taken for credit in addition to CHE 131 or CHE 152.
